High-Speed vs Conventional Ferries
SeaJets provides the fastest connection over the approximately 86 nautical miles, with journey times between 2 hours 40 minutes and 2 hours 50 minutes on their high-speed vessels. Blue Star Ferries utilizes conventional ships for the route, resulting in a longer travel time of 4 hours 45 minutes.
